This is a 4GB Lip Pattern USB Flash Memory Drive with Keychain. Just plug into your USB port and your computer will immediately detect and configure the disk without restarting your computer. Read, write, copy, store, delete files just the same way as you use for a floppy diskette or hard drive. Time to try it!

While USB flash drives are a convenient and easy way to quickly transfer large quantities of data in a tiny space, the way that they store data can cause them to become easily corrupted

If your computer will not detect the USB flash device or will not allow you to interact with the data stored on the drive, you can use the built-in features of your computer's operating system to attempt to fix the problem before resorting to buying a new drive

Instructions:

Plug the drive into a USB port that you know is working on a separate computer to make sure that the port itself is not causing the problem. Place the drive back into the original USB port if it remains undetectable on another system

Open the "Start" menu and click on "My Computer" to bring up a new window that lists all of the drives connected to your computer. Take note of the letters assigned to the drives connected to your computer. Click on the blue button at the top left end of the window labeled "Map a Network Drive." Click "Continue" if a second window pops up asking for your permission to open the new menu

Click the "Drive" button at the top of the new window. Select a drive letter from the drop-down menu that is not already in use, such as "Z" or "M." Click on the "Browse" button and locate the USB flash drive that your computer hasn't been detecting. Click on the drive and then click the "OK" button

Click the "Finish" button to close the window and map the USB flash drive to your computer. Restart the computer and then return to the "My Computer" menu and check to see if the USB flash device is usable. Navigate to the "Start" menu if the device still isn't working properly, and open "Control Panel."

Click the "Administrative Tools" link in the Control Panel menu. Click "Continue." Double-click the "Computer Management" link at the top of the menu. Click the "Disk Management" button at the left side of the window to bring up a list of drives on the computer. Right-click the USB flash drive and choose the "Format" option. Click "Start" and wait for the formatting process to finish. Restart the computer and then attempt to use the USB flash drive again

Tips & Warnings:

If the flash drive remains undetectable by any computer after mapping and formatting, the problem is a mechanical defect and the unit will need to be replaced

Formatting the drive will completely erase any data that was stored on it

Package Included:

1 x USB Flash Memory Drive

What is a good external USB hard drive that can withstand a tour of duty in Iraq?

A tough drive pro if your talking hard drive enclosure and not flash drive But I would recommend a flash drive for multiple reasons.

Why would an external usb drive only work when it is plugged into a certain usb prot on my pc?

Ok it depends on where the usb ports are sometimes.i.e sometimes the ones on the back behave differently to any on the front(as they run from a usb header) so power supply on the front ones may be lower. Another possiblity is faulty usb ports... does other items have the same issue? if so faulty ports. Another power issue is that msot usb devices drain some power from the usb and it has a limit for this so each pair of ports usually only has 500Ma assigned and if one device drains all of it the other item will have problems.
